Zhichen, Feng Xi, and the others searched the stele forest multiple times, but they could not find the Golden-Backed Mysterious Turtle or the Void Stele. It was as if they had vanished into thin air. Feng Xi's feelings were somewhat complicated.
She had actually been flattering herself! She had thought the Golden-Backed Mysterious Turtle wanted to freeload off her, but it turned out the creature had come to steal the stele! Fortunately, she had only mentioned asking about it and said nothing else, otherwise it would have been truly awkward.
It seemed one shouldn't get too full of oneself, or a slap in the face would surely follow. Finding nothing, Zhichen had no choice but to report the matter to Elder Gukuan. Elder Gukuan was already beside himself with worry over the incident at the Drum Tower, and now, upon hearing this disastrous news, he felt as though life was no longer worth living!
